Having a serious job or acting? Sebastian makes an honest confession about his origin and how he left his family at a young age for the art career and started to work as a travelling circus and performing artist. At the beginning, he earned his living as a street musician and street performer, and later joined companies and theatres. His own identity is still uncertain because his relatives have concealed the Roma origin of his grandmother. All this resulted in him returning to Italy a few years later and start working with stateless Roma children in whom no one else believed. Sebastian's message to us is "each one of us has his own special unique gift that no one else in the world has. Find that and this will lead you through life."

Sebastian was 17 years old, black sheep of the family, when he left his home to travel Europe as a circus and performance artist. He returned to Italy years later where he found himself and his true profession. He started to work with stateless Roma children living in ghettos, with youngsters that no one else cared for; he believed in them and paved their way. As a result of their common work, the music group Sarabanda was founded. The play “Children of the Wind" was written and performed by Sebastian Spinella.
